If you’ve ever felt guilty by association, you and hemp seeds already have something in common. Hemp seeds come from the Cannabis sativa, a plant that is conventionally better known for its narcotic properties over its skin benefits, though the oil itself is rich in essential 3-6-9 fatty acids as well as antioxidants.
Hemp seed oil acts as a vegetable protein, and provides the skin with instant moisturizing and protective properties that help to replenish and plump up the skin, prevent premature aging, and maintain moisture balance. It also acts as an anti-inflammatory, which is useful in alleviating certain rashes and skin conditions such as eczema, acne and psoriasis.
For quenched, healthy looking skin, the Mad Hippie Antioxidant Facial Oil is formulated with hemp seed extract to help strengthen and nourish skin from the inside out. Who wouldn’t want to be associated with that?
Mad Hippie Antioxidant Facial Oil
This free radical, hydrating oil is formulated with 18 actives in addition to hemp seed extract, including argan oil, goji and camu camu. These natural antioxidants and active essentials work hand in hand to liberate the skin from signs of aging and protect against photoaging. By leaving out harmful chemicals, parabens, synthetic color and fragrance, Mad Hippie Antioxidant Facial Oil helps skin achieve true hydration harmony.
My seventeen year-old daughter, Myelie has very dry and sensitive skin. It is always very flaky. She has tried so many different types of moisturizer, but they all seem to irritate her skin. The minute she tried Mad Hippie Antioxidant Facial Oil, she could feel that it was helping her skin. She had applied it at night after cleansing, and her face was immediately soothed. When she woke up the next morning her face was soft and radiant with zero flaking. She applies it at night and also in the morning before putting on her makeup. It is not greasy and absorbs very well. This is the first product that has worked for her and she is very happy. She loves Mad Hippie Antioxidant Facial Oil!
